Jokers were Rocks yesterday.

I remember way back that they said they would never leave Bish.

What happened?    :headscratch:

We did it last year when I with the squad. It was because numbers were low on Rook side, Joker made the decision to switch sides. Pissed off some bish for sure.
Now rumors are floating around about a conversation on 200 between Dallas and Joker, then the switch, Not sure what that is all about.

Ok, not just a rumor...
Seems Joker and Dallas were chatting back and forth on 200. Things like, It’s fun to attack/pressure the knits from both sides. And hey, the knit strats aren’t down yet, with a reply like, oh okay we will do that. This went on for some time. Now this Information is secondhand from a trusted source who witnessed it firsthand. Blatant collusion on 200 to work a two sided front against the third team. Sad to see certain people either hate the other team (or people on it) so much they would resort to such tactics. Definitely not in the “spirit” of the game. And to chat this on 200. Funny how  the absence  of cross country Chat has forced such actions into the light of day. As to what now? Well first,where was the “mod” All this time?
I think this is deplorable behavior and should be dealt with! As to why the Jokers switched to Rooks.. my best guess is, as they were called out by some Knights on 200 (my source was one) and the HCIC had them switch  to avoid exactly what I just mentioned, discipline. But that’s just a guess. Oh by the way, brownie points to anyone who figures out the acronym H.C.I.C. Means.

Dallas is a solid guy - he does change sides from time to time (perhaps tour -to-tour), so not sure of what to make of this.

OK, I'll bite.  How is this such a serious problem that "it should be dealt with?"  Two "countries" join forces to overwhelm the third.  My head spins.

  It's as old as Ah itself: The Knit/Rook alliance, The Bishop/Knight collusion, The Bish/Rook pact   Depends on your point of view.

There is no way the rooks could collude the bish, can’t even work with each other.

Let’s see now, you really want to dance with words? if your head really spins over this, you are already unreachable with logic, but “I’ll bite” The game is designed in a three vs three format, not a two vs one. After all it is not allies vs Germany (axis). Just like having map borders there are elements to make gameplay reasonable and enjoyable. If that were not the case starting your plane would take quite some time and stick stirring would result in your death etc etc.
So, if you can wrap your “spinning head” around that concept, then perhaps you can grasp that “I think” inciting unfair odds (gameplay) on 200 and we are not talking a casual pithy comment have you, but more of a repeated goading, open, rub it in your face kind of thing does not benefit the game? Furthermore, “I think” it should be discouraged based on reasonable gameplay for all, not just two sides! This is a game that has serious dwindling playership from when I started and it definitely does not need this. By the way, I have never had a problem with Dallas either. When on rooks i found him to be quite upstanding and reasonable. The HCIC is another story I won’t go into. Back on topic...
This person who watched this unfold on 200  unfold he was very taken aback and discouraged by this behavior. He has been playing here for over 6 years and is usually a take it as it comes and not over react kind of guy.. Anyway, I am reporting what I heard and my opinion of it. You sure don't have to like it or even wrap your spinning head around it, but that doesn’t change how I feel about it. Nuff said Old man

...so...I take it you also think something should be done about having more than one enemy plane attack you at once...?
